I spent yesterday at a job interview

A marathon therapy session. I spoke with 7 or 8 attorneys that all asked me same questions in different ways. It was sort of cathartic and interesting at the same time. I told one of them that work was not my main source of "fulfillment". I think that was a fair statement. I told him it could be a part of it but I was a very busy person outside of work. I was never a lawyer, just like Dad was never a doctor. I have put together a life that is fulfilling in other ways. Family, friends, fellow Cancer World peeps, my exchange students, my neighbors.. You get the picture. I will find a job, the right job. I will do great and memorable things at the job. I will add value to the organization that takes a chance on hiring me with my certain weird bucket of skills. Life is an adventure and each time a new door opens I thank my parents for giving me the sense of adventure and courage to walk through the door.
